Live streaming from Parker test facilities

Syslab, which is part of PowerLabDK is a microgrid and a flexible intelligent energy laboratory which enables Parker to perform V2G tests. During the project meeting, the partners were able to follow live data from the Parker fleet as well as live video feed from Syslab the two other test facilities of Parker.

Inspirational presentations by other V2G projects
